Summary
This video recounts the tragic bus accident that occurred on December 19, 1971, in Zaragoza, Spain, where a bus carrying families home for Christmas fell into the Ebro River from the Stone Bridge. Despite rescue attempts, the bus sank, and the incident resulted in multiple fatalities, fueling local legends about the "Pozo de San Lázaro." Later investigations revealed the well was deep but had no supernatural connection, though the strong currents contributed to the disaster.
